I was taken in by the bravado and the sounds of Mexico... not so much the music, but the spirit.

Mexican Shuffle was a turning point of the Brass.
We finally got our big break when Ed Sullivan put us on his show.
This was during a period when I was producing Brazil '66 records and got infected by Brazilian music.

The Japanese seem to be a loyal audience.
